[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do people care about the SAT scores of future teachers? The most important qualities in a public school teacher are the ability to deal with the decision fatigue that comes with the constantness of the job and the ability to put up with an incredible amount of BS coming from every direction. Most DCUMs wouldn't last a month as a teacher. [/quote] FWIW, I was a teacher with great test scores. I was a very good teacher. However, I knew some great, great teachers who I am sure did not have test scores as high as mine. Teaching is an art. Science and knowledge are important, but connecting is also important. I have to add, though, that I started teaching before women were encouraged to pursue other careers. [/quote]
